Rozaliya arrived on time and was very polite! She quickly assessed our flat and got stuck into work. She also asked questions to clarify what we wanted cleaned and where certain things were. The flat looks amazing and we are very happy!

‪Mohamed Omar S

Areas covered

Crouch End Crouch Hill Finsbury Park Harringay Manor House Seven Sisters South Tottenham

“Mohamed was excellent and worked hard. I would recommend him. I didnt really like the automated booking system because it meant I had to spend a lot of time trying to fix problems that occurred. First - cleaner bringing own products was an option.I thought that would mean a hoover,mop, bucket etc, which I didn't have. It was only after I'd handed over card details that I realised this just meant cleaning chemicals. I'd booked Mohamed for 4 hours but without the equipment there was less he could do. I tried to cancel immediately and wasn't able to cos the cleaning was the following morning. I would be billed the full charge if I cancelled. (£100.00) Luckily in my communication with Mohamed he agreed he could do 3 hours instead. Then the system tried to bill me for 3.5 hours because he worked 1 minute over. All very stressful and difficult to get a human to talk to to address these issues. Too much AI! Mohamed was great but the system ruined the experience for me with all the time it took. I did eventually get a human through email.”

Islington is inner-London's most densely populated borough, with the 200,000 residents who call it home crammed into less than 6 square miles that extend from Crouch Hill in the north, to Farringdon in the South, Canonbury in the east and King's Cross in the west.

Islington incorporates the postcode areas N1, N4, N5, N6, N7, N8, N16, N19, EC1, EC2, NW5 and WC1 and is serviced by multiple tube and rail stations including Tufnell Park, Archway, Upper Holloway, Crouch Hill, Finsbury Park, Arsenal, Drayton Park, Holloway Road, Camden Road, Angel, Highbury & Islington, Canonbury, Caledonian Road & Barnsbury, Essex Road, Old Street and Farringdon.

Islington is known for its Victorian and Georgian townhouses set on communal garden squares. The housing stock also includes many flats in the form of converted terraces, warehouse conversions and modern new-build apartments.

Housekeep cleaned its first house in Islington in 2014, and there are now hundreds of experienced domestic cleaners available in the area, including in Clerkenwell, Pentonville and Mildmay.
